Loving God, who for the salvation of all didst give Jesus Christ as light to a world in darkness: Illumine us, with thy daughter Lucy, with the light of Christ, that by the merits of his passion we may be led to eternal life; through the same Jesus Christ, who with thee and the Holy Spirit livest and reignest, one God, for ever and ever. Amen.
Hallow the vespers and December of our life, O martyred Lucy:
Console our solstice with your friendly day.
– Thomas Merton.Today is the feast of St Lucy of Syracuse.
